[ Upstream commit 36a3d1dd4e16bcd0d2ddfb4a2ec7092f0ae0d931 ]

If the amount of resources allocated to a gen_pool exceeds 2^32 then the
avail atomic overflows and this causes problems when clients try and
borrow resources from the pool.  This is only expected to be an issue on
64 bit systems.

Add the &lt;linux/atomic.h&gt; header to pull in atomic_long* operations.  So
that 32 bit systems continue to use atomic32_t but 64 bit systems can
use atomic64_t.

Dave noticed that after fixing MADV_DONTNEED vs numa balancing race the
last pmdp_huge_get_and_clear_notify() user is gone.

Let's drop the helper.

commit af97a77bc01ce49a466f9d4c0125479e2e2230b6 upstream.

Thanks to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl script, it was found that
some EFI values should not be readable by non-root users.

So make them root-only, and to do that, add a __ATTR_RO_MODE() macro to
make this easier, and use it in other places at the same time.

Provide the dummy version of dma_get_cache_alignment that always returns
1 even if CONFIG_HAS_DMA is not set, so that drivers and subsystems can
use it without ifdefs.

<content type='text'>
commit a009e975da5c7d42a7f5eaadc54946eb5f76c9af upstream.

The dma_fence.error field (formerly known as dma_fence.status) is an
optional field that may be set by drivers before calling
dma_fence_signal(). The field can be used to indicate that the fence was
completed in err rather than with success, and is visible to other
consumers of the fence and to userspace via sync_file.

This patch renames the field from status to error so that its meaning is
hopefully more clear (and distinct from dma_fence_get_status() which is
a composite between the error state and signal state) and adds a helper
that validates the preconditions of when it is suitable to adjust the
error field.

commit d6c99f4bf093a58d3ab47caaec74b81f18bc4e3f upstream.

The fence-&gt;status is an optional field that is only valid once the fence
has been signaled. (Driver may fill the fence-&gt;status with an error code
prior to calling dma_fence_signal().) Given the restriction upon its
validity, wrap querying of the fence-&gt;status into a helper
dma_fence_get_status().

<title>mm: avoid returning VM_FAULT_RETRY from -&gt;page_mkwrite handlers</title>

[ Upstream commit 0911d0041c22922228ca52a977d7b0b0159fee4b ]

Some -&gt;page_mkwrite handlers may return VM_FAULT_RETRY as its return
code (GFS2 or Lustre can definitely do this).  However VM_FAULT_RETRY
from -&gt;page_mkwrite is completely unhandled by the mm code and results
in locking and writeably mapping the page which definitely is not what
the caller wanted.

Fix Lustre and block_page_mkwrite_ret() used by other filesystems
(notably GFS2) to return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE instead which results in
bailing out from the fault code, the CPU then retries the access, and we
fault again effectively doing what the handler wanted.

<title>perf/x86/intel: Account interrupts for PEBS errors</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 475113d937adfd150eb82b5e2c5507125a68e7af ]

It's possible to set up PEBS events to get only errors and not
any data, like on SNB-X (model 45) and IVB-EP (model 62)
via 2 perf commands running simultaneously:

    taskset -c 1 ./perf record -c 4 -e branches:pp -j any -C 10

This leads to a soft lock up, because the error path of the
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm() does not account event-&gt;hw.interrupt
for error PEBS interrupts, so in case you're getting ONLY
errors you don't have a way to stop the event when it's over
the max_samples_per_tick limit:

  NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#22 stuck for 22s! [perf_fuzzer:5816]
  ...
  RIP: 0010:[&lt;ffffffff81159232&gt;]  [&lt;ffffffff81159232&gt;] smp_call_function_single+0xe2/0x140
  ...
  Call Trace:
   ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0xf5/0x1b0

   do_syscall_64+0x6c/0x1f0
   entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path+0x25/0x25

Add perf_event_account_interrupt() which does the interrupt
and frequency checks and call it from intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm()'s
error path.

We keep the pending_kill and pending_wakeup logic only in the
__perf_event_overflow() path, because they make sense only if
there's any data to deliver.
